Spider-mania in Room 5!

October is here and, boy, can room 5 tell! We've got spiders everywhere!

If you haven't stopped by our room this past week, please do so to look at our quilt, our hanging spiders, and even read our writing project in the hallway

by the gym!

Our science table even has LIVE 8-legged SPIDERS at it!

Thank you to all the families who were brave enough to catch and bring in a spider.

Likewise, thank you to Cole's family for bringing in preserved, scientific spiders to investigate!

Are you afraid of spiders? Spiders are helpful~~ask your KinderKid why that is!!!
